Main Injector collimation at slip-stacking injection • There are 8 dipoles and ≈ dozen quads in the 200-m region. • Our goal was to design an appropriate radiation shielding for the region. • There is a primary collimator (thin tungsten plate) and 4 secondary ones (big structures).
Practical observations • For a single dipole it might be makes sense to build the geometry model without MMBLB. • For two dipoles we could still work without MMBLB. • For three dipoles, from now on, I will use MMBLB.
Advantages • If one makes an error in a model when using Non-standard geometry, it would be time-consuming to correct it for a model with 1000 spatial cells. MMBLB reduces the complexity of the entire model to the complexity of a single section. • An output file BL_ELEMENTS gives detailed info on the sections.
